6.3Find Probabilities Using Combinations

Vocabulary Combination: order doesn’t matter n # of possibilities, taken r at a time nCr = How many combinations of 4 letters? 26C4 = 14,950

Count the combinations of two letters from the list A, B, C, D. SOLUTION List all of the permutations of two letters in the list A, B, C, D. Because order is not important in a combination, cross out any duplicate pairs. AB AC AD BA BC BD CA CB CD DA DB DC BD and DB are the same pair. ANSWER There are 6 possible combinations of 2 letters from the list A, B, C, D.

1. Count the combinations of 3 letters from the list A, B, C, D, E. ANSWER There are 10 possible combinations of 2 letters from the list A, B, C, D, E.

LUNCH MENU You order a sandwich at a restaurant. You can choose 2 side dishes from a list of 8. How many combinations of side dishes are possible? SOLUTION The order in which you choose the side dishes is not important. So, to find the number of combinations of 8 side dishes taken 2 at a time, find 8C2 . 8C2 = 8! (8 –2)! 2! Combinations formula = 8! 6! 2! Subtract.

There are 28 different combinations of side dishes you can order. = 8 7 6! 6! (2 1) Expand factorials. Divide out common factor, 6!. = 28 Simplify. There are 28 different combinations of side dishes you can order. ANSWER

PHOTOGRAPHY A yearbook editor has selected 14 photos, including one of you and one of your friend, to use in a collage for the yearbook. The photos are placed at random. There is room for 2 photos at the top of the page. What is the probability that your photo and your friend’s photo are the two placed at the top of the page?

SOLUTION STEP 1 Write the number of possible outcomes as the number of combinations of 14 photos taken 2 at a time, or 14C2, because the order in which the photos are chosen is not important. = 14! (14 – 2)! 2! = 14! 12! 2! = 14 13 12! 12! (2 1) 14C2 = 91 STEP 2 Find the number of favorable outcomes. Only one of the possible combinations includes your photo and your friend’s photo. STEP 3 Calculate the probability. P(your photo and your friend’s photos are chosen) = 91 1
